乌云在我们心里
The dark clouds reside within our hearts,
搁下一块阴影
Leaving behind a lingering shadow.
我聆听沉寂已久的心情
I listen to the silence that has lasted too long,
清晰透明就像美丽的风景
Clear and transparent like a beautiful landscape.
总在回忆里才看得清
Only in memories can I see it clearly,
被伤透的心
A heart that has been deeply wounded.
能不能够继续爱我
Can you still love me?
我用力牵起没温度的双手
I clutch your cold hands tightly,
过往温柔已经被时间上锁
The past's tenderness is now locked away by time,
只剩挥散不去的难过
Leaving only the lingering sorrow that won't fade.
缓缓飘落的枫叶像思念
Slowly falling maple leaves, like longing
我点燃烛火温暖岁末的秋天
I light the candle to warm the autumn of the year’s end
极光掠夺天边
Auroras sweep across the horizon
北风掠过想你的容颜
The north wind brushes against the face I miss
我把爱烧成了落叶
I've burned my love into fallen leaves
却换不回熟悉的那张脸
Yet cannot bring back that familiar face
缓缓飘落的枫叶像思念
Slowly falling maple leaves, like longing
为何挽回要赶在冬天来之前
Why must I rush to reclaim before winter arrives?
爱你穿越时间
Loving you transcends time
两行来自秋末的眼泪
Two lines of tears from late autumn
让爱渗透了地面
Let love seep into the ground
我要的只是你在我身边
All I want is you by my side
被伤透的心
A heart that's been shattered
能不能够继续爱我
Can you still love me?
我用力牵起没温度的双手
I grasp your cold hands tightly
过往温柔已经被时间上锁
The gentle past is locked away by time
只剩挥散不去的难过
Only lingering sorrow remains
在山腰间飘逸的红雨
Red rain drifting on the mountainside
随着北风凋零
Fading with the northern wind
我轻轻摇曳风铃
I gently sway the wind chimes
想唤醒被遗弃的爱情
I want to awaken the love that was abandoned
雪花已铺满了地
The snowflakes have covered the ground
深怕窗外枫叶已结成冰
Deeply afraid that the maple leaves outside have turned to ice
缓缓飘落的枫叶像思念
The slowly falling maple leaves resemble longing
我点燃烛火温暖岁末的秋天
I ignite the candlelight to warm this year-end autumn
极光掠夺天边
The aurora steals across the horizon
北风掠过想你的容颜
The north wind brushes past your visage
我把爱烧成了落叶
I've burnt my love into fallen leaves
却换不回熟悉的那张脸
Yet I can't retrieve that familiar face
缓缓飘落的枫叶像思念
The slowly falling maple leaves resemble longing
为何挽回要赶在冬天来之前
Why try to regain it before winter arrives?
爱你穿越时间
Loving you transcends time.
两行来自秋末的眼泪
Two lines of tears from late autumn.
让爱渗透了地面
Let love seep into the ground.
我要的只是你在我身边
All I want is you by my side.
